The Skin You Hate

I had this friend, and her skin was a beautiful golden brown color and she was a stunning girl in general, inside and out. She would always talk about how she wanted to have a lighter skin color and no matter how often I tried to convince her that she was beautiful she never believed me. I love her very much, and she is the most amazing person I have ever met, so I wrote her a poem in hopes that she would see that. (The honey part is because she loved these weird little honey stick candy things)
